Issue

  • In a deployment that uses the OVN mechanism driver, how can I enable DEBUG in OVN Controller?

Resolution

You can choose from these alternate methods for enabling DEBUG in OVN Controller:

Method 1: Use Ansible playbooks. This approach was added to make the task easier. In most cases it provides better results.

Method 2: Use a manual procedure. This is the approach first published with this article. Use it if the Automated with Ansible approach is not appropriate for your situation.

METHOD 1: Use Ansible playbooks to enable DEBUG in OVN controller

  1. Get the playbook:

    [stack@director ~]$ mkdir -p ~/playbooks && curl -so ~/playbooks/ovn-debug.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enothen/rhosp-tools/refs/heads/main/playbooks/ovn-debug.yaml
    [stack@director ~]$ 
    
  2. In RHOSP 16.2, create an inventory file (if not created yet). This task is not required in RHOSP 17.1, because a default inventory can be used.

    [stack@director.test.lab ~]$ source stackrc 
    (undercloud) [stack@director.test.lab ~]$ tripleo-ansible-inventory --static-yaml-inventory ~/inventory.yaml
    (undercloud) [stack@director.test.lab ~]$ 
    
  3. Run the playbook using either the inventory created in the previous step, or in case of RHOSP 17.1, the default inventory. Use -l to limit nodes where to enable debug. Otherwise, the playbook will enable debug in all overcloud nodes (except nodes with role CephStorage):

    (undercloud) [stack@director ~]$ ansible-playbook -i /home/stack/overcloud-deploy/overcloud/tripleo-ansible-inventory.yaml playbooks/ovn-debug.yaml -l overcloud-controller-0
    [WARNING]: Could not match supplied host pattern, ignoring: CephStorage

EXAMPLE: customizing the list of modules through Ansible extra-vars

  • Setting: It is possible to customize the list of modules for which to change the output level to debug, using Ansible extra vars ovn_modules and ovs_modules. Note that both of them need to be defined as lists. For example:

    [stack@director.test.lab ~]$ ansible-playbook -i inventory.yaml playbooks/ovn-debug.yaml -l overcloud-controller-0 -e '{"ovn_modules": [binding, chassis, encaps], "ovs_modules": [bridge, vswitchd] }'

METHOD 2: Use manual procedure to enable DEBUG in OVN controller
- The ovn-controller service runs in a container, so you must set the DEBUG option inside the container.

  • Verify the status of tripleo_ovn_controller service is Active:

    # systemctl is-active tripleo_ovn_controller
    active
    
  • Inside the container, use ovn-appctl to verify list-commands offered for ovn-controller. ovn-appctl is a tool for communicating with running OVN services such as ovn-controller and ovn-northd. Note that in the output, the set of commands that begin with vlog are used to configure the logging mechanism of OVN services.

    # podman exec -it -u root ovn_controller ovn-appctl list-commands
    The available commands are:
      connection-status       
      coverage/read-counter   COUNTER
      coverage/show           
      ct-zone-list            
      debug/delay-nb-cfg-report SECONDS
      debug/dump-lflow-conj-ids 
      debug/dump-local-bindings 
      debug/pause             
      debug/resume            
      debug/status            
      dpif-netlink/dispatch-mode 
      exit                    
      flush-lflow-cache       [deprecated]

      vlog/enable-rate-limit  [module]...
      vlog/list               
      vlog/list-pattern       
      vlog/reopen             
      vlog/set                {spec | PATTERN:destination:pattern}
    
  • Verify the logging pattern for ovn-controller.
    Note that each 'ovn-controller` module has its own logging configuration. You can enable logging for all modules or for specific modules. Generally it is better to enable logging for specific modules, because logging for all modules makes it difficult to find the information you need. Engineering can help you decide which module logs to enable for a specific case or problem.

    # podman exec -it -u root ovn_controller ovn-appctl vlog/list-pattern
             prefix                            format
             ------                            ------
    SYSLOG   <%B> %D{%h %e %T} %E %A:          ovs|%05N|%c%T|%p|%m
    CONSOLE  none                              %D{%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ}|%05N|%c%T|%p|%m
    FILE     none                              %D{%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.###Z}|%05N|%c%T|%p|%m
    
  • Review the list of ovn-controller modules that are available for configuration:

    # podman exec -it -u root ovn_controller ovn-appctl vlog/list
                     console    syslog    file

  • Use the following ovn-appctl syntax to customize vlog:

    ovn-appctl vlog/set module:facility:level
    

    Values for facility include kern, user, mail, daemon, auth, syslog, lpr, news, uucp, clock, ftp, ntp, audit, alert, clock2, local0, local1, local2, local3, local4, local5, local6 and local7.
    Values for level include: off, emer, err, warn, info, dbg. For more information, see https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ovn-appctl.8.html.

  • Example 1: verify OVN module chassis.

    # podman exec -it -u root ovn_controller ovn-appctl vlog/list | grep chassis
    chassis           INFO       INFO       INFO
    
  • Example 2: enable debug for OVN chassis module. Before using this command, note the previous settings so you can restore them.
    Note that this is just a sample command. Each case or problem might require looking at a different set of modules.
    Note that changes to logging configurations are not persistent across service restarts. They are reset after a service restart.

    podman exec -it -u root ovn_controller ovn-appctl vlog/set chassis:file:dbg
    
  • Review the debug log from the following /var/log/containers/openvswitch/ovn-controller.log location.

  • Example of how to disable debug for OVN chassis module. Note: to prevent excessive logging and storage of debug messages, you should disable the debug mode when you are done collecting data.

    podman exec -it -u root ovn_controller ovn-appctl vlog/set chassis:file:info
